Jen Talty is a Nationally Bestselling Author

For the last nine years, Kaylee Mead has been running from her past. Now she's running for her life. Her only chance at survival is to return home and patch things up with her father. When she returns to her home in Thief Lake, Minnesota, she finds her father dead and herself becoming the cop's best suspect for his murder. Assistant Police Chief Blaine Walker has been trying to put his ex-wife out of his mind for years, but when he finds her hovered over her father's body, he knows that battle is lost. She becomes his only suspect in a case that doesn't make sense. He vows to find the answers and then hopefully rekindle the flame that has never quite died out in his heart.

About the Author

Jen Talty co-created Cool Gus Publishing with NY Times Best-Selling Author Bob Mayer, and runs the technical side of the company. She is a published romance author, and teaches Creative Writing at various writing conferences across the country. Jen grew up in Rochester, NY, a city with the highest murder rate per capita in the entire state. With notorious cases such as The Alphabet Murders, The Genesee River Killer (Arthur Shawcross), The Murder of Kali Ann Poulton by Mark Christi, and the case of funeral homes stealing body parts from corpses awaiting cremation, Jen became fascinated by the darker side of human nature. She brings this fascination to her romances, creating dark villains who wreak havoc on the hero and heroine, and producing page-turning suspense. Jen received a BS degree in Business Education with a concentration in Marketing and Sales from Nazareth College of Rochester.Â She taught Business Applications at both the high school level and in Continuing Education.Â She was a co-leader of Distributed Education Clubs of America and worked with students in developing marketing, sales and public speaking skills.Â After leaving the teaching profession, she worked as a product and sales trainer for various hardware and software companies such as 3Comm, HP and McAfee, and was the regional merchandising representative for Buena Vista Entertainment. Who Dares Wins Publishing was formed as a vehicle to launch Bob Mayer's backlist into digital publication. It was built on the notion that writers produce the product, readers consume the product and everything else is in between. The 21st century has brought the rise of the digital author. It is time to take control. Write It Forward, a division of Cool Gus Publishing was formed because both Bob Mayer and Jen Talty believe the two most important people in the publishing business are the writer and the reader. The key to being successful in a business where 99% of what is submitted or self-published is rejected or fails is education and understanding. Write It Forward is dedicated to giving writers the tools and information they need to increase their chances of success. It truly is a great time to be an author.

I downloaded Rekindled as my first free download. Now that I've had my first "free" experience, I think I'd rather pay for something that is copy-edited, proof-read and overseen by an editor. The premise of an ex-wife of a detective or cop has good conflict potential. I don't think this is an unsalvageable book; just one that has been rushed to market without regard for the old-fashioned editing that makes a book better and doesn't diminish the reading experience with bonehead errors. I expected more from Who Dares Win/Bob Meyer's involvement.

I enjoyed the story and the characters, but it definitely needed editing. Spelling, wrong words used, and words that were runned together were distracing. This is one of many books that I have grabbed for free. I thought that it was worth reading, but it will put some people off because of the lack of editing.

I read this book on my Kindle, and the format was strange--words running together sometimes or large spaces between them. I couldn't finish it so can't really do a literary review, but the writer should use spellcheck. There were some obvious spelling and grammatical errors that a good editor would have found.

I love books that have a series. These books by Jen Talty are likely based together but can really be read desperately. I love a book with suspense a goof amount of romance thrown in...Jen keeps you guessing as you are watching this love story unfold! Love love love
